If you would like to see the jetBook Lite in action, go to 3:34.
The jetBook Lite currently only supports Arial and Verdana fonts. However, there is a simple way to reformat nearly any eBook to the Font and Justification that you desire.
All software used in this video is free:
You can reformat books from nearly any format into a text document using Calibre: http://calibre-ebook.com/
Use Project Gutenberg to locate many free ebooks: http://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Main_Page
For information on formatting text files into something more visually pleasing check out: http://www.handebooks.com/howto/tips.html
To edit the metadata in a pdf file, check out:

Finally, Open Office: http://www.openoffice.org/
Even after a couple of years, this is one of the best instructional videos for jetBook Lite owners like me. I've followed your instructions to create PDF ebooks for my JBL. I especially liked your tip about BeCyPDFMetaEdit. I didn't know you could update the metadata on a PDF until I watched your video. That trick works perfectly for me. I also like the way you can add a picture and fit it perfectly into the PDF book to fit the JBL screen.

Do you have maybe some good advise how to adjust PDF for ectaco jetbook? I have many books in PDF and I wish I could do the same what you show but openoffice does't work that way. Is there any easy method? Thanks
